Magick Matters

🕵️🐷🕵️ zero-day🕵️🐷🕵️ "An exploration of the history, mythology, and evidence of those who traveled to pre-Columbian America. Native groups have lived in the Americas for more than 10,000 years, but the voyages of Columbus surely did not bring the first visitors.

“The Avatar Faculty: Ecstatic Transformations in Religion and Video Games” by Jeffrey G. Snodgrass

Magick Matters

"The Avatar Faculty creatively examines the parallels between spiritual and digital activities to explore the roles that symbolic second selves—avatars—can play in our lives. The use of avatars can allow for what anthropologists call ecstasy, from the Greek ekstasis, meaning "standing outside oneself". The archaic techniques of promoting spiritual ecstasy, which remain central to religious healing traditions around the world, now also have contemporary analogues in virtual worlds found on the internet. In this innovative book, Jeffrey G. Snodgrass argues that avatars allow for the ecstatic projection of consciousness into alternate realities, potentially providing both the spiritually possessed and gamers access to superior secondary identities with elevated social standing. Even if only temporary, self-transformations...>>
